Author Topic: Dolby show library Peter Fagan Film Handler Posts: 17 From: Letterkenny, donegal, Ireland Registered: Aug 2012 posted 09-16-2013 03:30 PM                        Hi guys.i'm just wondering if anyone is using a dolby show library & if so what have you found to be the pros & cons with the system.I don't have a an actual tms library here at the cinema .i am using screen 1 projector as a master & running the other screens as slaves using the built in dolby software on the dss200 so basically i have a tms without an actual tms server.we are looking to incorporate a show library for storage & seeing as i have dolby showstores here at the cinema we are thinking of going down that route but would like to hear your opinions on what you think is a good reliable show library. thanks Pete  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

It is really just a big storage device that runs the TMS software. It does backup the databases of the individual servers too...that is handy. That is, if you swap out a server or run an INSTALL disc and have serial cues...the DSL100/200 will rebuild that list. That sort of thing.  |  IP: Logged Peter Fagan Film Handler Posts: 17 From: Letterkenny, donegal, Ireland Registered: Aug 2012 posted 09-26-2013 04:41 AM                        Thanks for that steve.I figured as much that it would be the same way that i am using now.It was one of the reasons i was thinking of getting the dolby showstore in the first place.  |  IP: Logged
